STAMFORD WORK-RELATED CAR ACCIDENT LAWYERS

While most compensation from work-related accidents are provided under workers' compensation, car accidents often involve third parties, opening the door for a right to sue the responsible driver. If you were injured in a work-related car accident, due to the negligence of another driver or co-worker, you may have a personal injury claim.

Third-Party Liability Claim Against Negligent Drivers

Personal injury claims are prohibited in work-related accidents against an employer, because these damages are provided for under workers' compensation. Workers' comp covers economic loss such as medical bills and loss wages. Unfortunately, it does not cover noneconomic loss such as pain and suffering, which can be sought in a personal injury claim.

Only if an injury was caused intentionally by the employer can the employee file a personal injury lawsuit. The other route is a third-party liability claim. For example, if an injury was caused by a co-worker's operation of a car or other motor vehicle, Connecticut law allows an injured worker to sue a co-worker for the negligent, reckless or intentional operation of a motor vehicle.
